BBCiPlayer Level3 (1280x720p, ca. 2400kbps) stream not detected!

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1. What steps will reproduce the problem?

Try to download URL:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b05qyqwb/
(from a non-UK IP; I use "online proxies")

2. What is the expected output?

The app should detect the Level3 HD stream, something along these lines:

rt_Clevel3_h264_1280_720_2800

(this stream can be found by going via a UK IP @

http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/5/select/version/2.0/mediaset/pc/vpid/b
05qyqvs )

3. What do you see instead?

 All other available streams are detected, including the Akamai 720p one...

4. What version of the product are you using?

Adownloader v17.3 (from the full setup, a3toMP4v17.3F.exe)

5. On what operating system?

WinVista SP2 x86 Home Premium (en-US)

6. Please provide any additional information below.

 It is essential the Level3 stream is detected, because the L3 CDN is not geo-blocked at FMS server level, so can be downloaded at high speeds from my overseas location - it is true that sometime towards the end of Jan 2015 and lasting until mid-March 2015 the L3 CDN was partially broken, but it has now returned to full working order!
 The detected Akamai 720p stream would not download from my location, since it's geo-blocked at server level - must use UK VPN (or UK SSH tunnel) for that one...

Thanks

Hi again :-)

Thanks for fixing the Level3 stream; I got my 500MB file nice and quick...
Some points, though:

I opted not to embed (incrustar?) the available subtitles; 
this resulted in:
1. No subtitles file at all
2. A video file that has the erroneous extension .mp4, 
when in fact it is an .flv file (MediaInfo correctly reports so...)

1.=> I would've expected a standalone .srt file for the available subtitles
2.=> since ffmpeg already comes with the app, the mislabeled .mp4 file (in 
reality .flv) could've been losslessly remuxed to the MP4 container via: 

ffmpeg -i foo.flv -c copy -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc foo.mp4

 But while you have fixed the detection of the L3 stream (which downloads fine with "online proxies"), today (23/04/2015 in my timezone) I find that all the Limelight streams that are detected successfully FAIL TO DOWNLOAD either via "online proxies" or via a UK VPN + "don't use proxies" - the app just stands still consuming increasing amounts of CPU without downloading anything - I have to kill the download!
The very same streams did download successfully 2 days ago when I reported the 
initial issue...
I have done some tests and verified the Limelight streams are working (I can 
watch them in Firefox with a UK HTTP proxy, can download them with another tool 
(FreeRapidDownloader) with Tor/UK proxy), so there's something gone wrong in 
Adownloader ;-( 
Can you replicate?

 And I understand the app is mainly targeted at Spanish speakers, but a more complete English localisation would be most welcome!
 Again, many thanks for this very versatile app!

Regards
